A Low Odor, No VOC, Safer Micro-Etching Surface Prep

AdvanEtch represents Zen-Tek Coating's breakthrough in refinishing preparation technology. This advanced sanding liquid delivers precise micro-etching capabilities for professional refinishers who demand superior results. Unlike conventional methods, our innovative formula creates the optimal surface profile on porcelain, enamel, ceramic tile, and glass surfaces, establishing the perfect foundation for lasting adhesion of primers and topcoats.

Zen-Tek developed AdvanEtch specifically for industry professionals seeking a safer, more effective alternative to traditional deglossers; eliminating the need to sand over etched surfaces and wear respirators when in use. Whether you're working on vintage cast iron tubs, modern ceramic tile surrounds, or custom glass installations, this professional-grade liquid sandpaper ensures consistent, reliable performance every time.

AdvanEtch eliminates the severe hazards associated with hydrofluoric acid-based products. This refined sanding liquid for bathtubs provides effective etching without the extreme respiratory risks and potential for severe chemical burns, fundamentally changing how to use deglosser products safely.

The intelligent formulation prevents over-etching—a common problem when comparing deglosser vs sanding options. AdvanEtch creates the ideal microscopic profile without damaging underlying materials, ensuring optimal paint adhesion without surface degradation

With virtually zero VOCs and no harsh fumes, this paint deglosser represents a significant advancement in sustainable refinishing practices. Protect your health and the environment without compromising professional results.

AdvanEtch delivers consistent etching in just 5-10 minutes, with a simple water rinse for neutralization. This efficiency dramatically improves productivity compared to traditional sander deglosser methods that require extensive preparation and cleanup.

Our proprietary gel-based deglosser adheres precisely where applied, eliminating drips and runs on vertical surfaces. This controlled application ensures consistent results across bathtubs, wall tiles, and complex surfaces that traditional liquid sander deglosser products can't match.

AdvanEtch is gentler on materials it accidentally spills on. If you spill it, you have several minutes to clean it with soap and water, which will neutralize it. Unlike hydrochloric acid, which instantly destroys materials it spills on and can even obliterate some materials to powder in minutes, AdvanEtch allows a little time for cleanup.

Porcelain & Enamel Liquid Sandpaper

Our porcelain deglosser technology creates the perfect microscopic profile on smooth, non-porous surfaces. Whether working with vintage fixtures or modern installations, this solution delivers consistent results without damaging the underlying material structure.

Ceramic Tile Deglosser for Refinishing

Transform even the most challenging ceramic surfaces with our specialized ceramic tile deglosser. AdvanEtch provides effective preparation for tub and tile refinishing, ensuring superior coating adhesion where traditional spray sandpaper products fail, all without damaging surrounding materials.

Cast Iron Liquid Sandpaper for Restoration

Professional refinishers rely on our cast iron liquid sandpaper for heritage restoration projects. AdvanEtch effectively prepares durable surfaces while preserving the structural integrity that traditional acid-based deglossers can compromise.

Glass Liquid Sandpaper for Specialty Surfaces

The gentle yet effective formulation makes AdvanEtch an exceptional glass deglosser for specialized applications. Create the ideal foundation for coating glass and steel surfaces without the clouding or etching damage caused by conventional methods.
